JCRC To Launch Television Pro-Israel Campaign During Red Sox Games And Celtics Playoffs
(Boston, April 26) JCRC announced today it will air the first in a series of pro-Israel spots during tonight's Red Sox game on the New England Sports Network (NESN). Entitled "American's Ally, Israel is a Democracy," the 30-second spot will be viewed by thousands of sports fans throughout the region.
Developed in cooperation with the Israel project, the spot includes information and images about Israel's freedom of religion, freedom of speech and universal voting rights. It also highlights Israel's commitment to making peace with the Palestinians, including its planned withdrawal from the Gaza Strip this summer.
"JCRC is proud to sponsor this important message about Israel," said JCRC Executive Director Nancy K. Kaufman. "We want everyone to know the sacrifices that Israel is making for peace. We present a balanced and accurate portrayal of Israel and the Middle East."
